In this paper, we propose a thread scheduling algorithm for faster packet processing on the network processors with multithreaded multiprocessor architecture. To implement the proposed algorithm. we derived several basic parameters related to the thread scheduling and included a new parameter representing the packet contents and the multithreaded architecture. Through the empirical study using a simulator, we proved the proposed scheduling algorithm provides better throughput and load balancing compared to the general thread scheduling algorithm.

n개의 동일한 프로세서 상에서 m개의 주기적인 태스크들의 적합한 스케줄을 구하기 위한 알고리즘을 제시한다. 정수이하의 작은 시간으로 태스크의 실행시간이 잘라질 수 있다는 가정 하에 태스크 집합은 기본 스케줄링 알고리즘을 통해서 부분적인 스케줄을 얻고 정수 화를 위한 다중프로세서 스케줄링 알고리즘으로 적합한 스케줄을 구성한다. 또한 태스크들에 대한 활용도의 합이 n보다 작거나 같다는 조건은 실시간 다중프로세서 시스템에서 주기적인 태스크 집합에 대한 적합한 스케줄을 구성하기 위한 필요.충분조건임을 보여준다.

Synthetic utilization on multiprocessor system is not considered periodic tasks, except scheduling methods for aperiodic tasks where one of the real-time aperiodic tasks is a scheduling method. But really aperiodic tasks scheduling method is composed of mixed task types. Aperiodic task scheduling method guarantee an analysis of the schedualibility of aperiodic task. The set of mixed tasks periodic and aperiodic tasks scheduling method uses improved synthetic utilization that is presented in this paper. The new method shows that schedulability increases aperiodic server method.

대칭형 다중프로세서 (SMP: Symmetric Multiprocessors) 시스템은 고성능의 병렬 연산을 위한 중요하고 효과적인 기반환경을 제공하고 있다. SMP에서 태스크 클러스터링과 스케줄링 기법은 시스템의 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 버스 기반의 SMP에서 사용할 수 있는 태스크 중복 기반의 클러스터링과 스케줄링 기법을 소개한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 클러스터링 기법에서는 휴리스틱을 사용하여 중복할 태스크를 선택한 후 프로세서에 할당하고, 스케줄링 기법에서는 잠재하는 통신 충돌을 방지하기 위하여 네트워크 통신 자원을 사전에 할당한다. 새로운 클러스터링과 스케줄링 기법의 성능을 확인하기 위하여 시뮬레이션에서는 통신비용의 변화에 대한 병렬연산시간을 비교하였다.

Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMP) has emerged as an important and cost-effective platform for high performance parallel computing. Scheduling of parallel tasks and communications of SMP is important because the choice of a scheduling discipline can have a significant impact on the performance of the system. In this paper, we present a task duplication based scheduling scheme for bus-based SMP. The proposed scheme pre-allocates network communication resources so as to avoid potential communication conflicts. The performance of the proposed scheme has been observed by comparing the schedule length under various number of processors and the communication cost.

In this paper, a task duplication based heuristic scheduling algorithm is proposed to solve the problem of task scheduling on Shared Memory Multiporcessors (SMM). The proposed algorithm pre-allocates network resources so as to avoid potential communication conlhct, and the algorithm uses heuristies to select duplication tasks so as to recuce of a multiprocessors, and generates scheduling accorting to the available number of processors ina system. The proposed algorithm has been applied to some practical task graphs in the simulation, and the results show that the proposed algorithm achieves considerable performance improvement, in respect of schedule length.

Recently, Baruah et.al. proposed an optimal Pfair scheduling algorithm in the hard real-time multiprocessor environments, and several variants of it were presented. All these algorithms assume the fixed unit quantum size, and this assumption has two problems in the mode change environments. If the quantum size is too large, it results in the scheduling failure due to the decreased processor utilization. If it is too small, it increases the frequency of scheduling points, and it incurs the task switching overheads. In this paper, we propose several methods that determine the maximum quantum size dynamically such that the task set can be scheduled in the mode change environments.

Abdelzaher et al. proposed an algorithm to determine the schedulability of aperiodic tasks on multiprocessor systems, and proved that the aperiodic tasks are schedulable if the upperbound of synthetic utilization is less than or equal to 0.59. But this algorithm has a drawback in that if some tasks, even though they are completed and have no more execution times, are included in the current invocation set, their execution times and deadlines are added to the synthetic utilization. This may lead to a problem in which actually schedulable tasks are decided not to be schedulable. In this paper, we recognize the above mentioned problem and propose an improved synthetic utilization method that can be used to schedule aperiodic tasks more efficiently on multiprocessor systems.

The Least-Laxity First(or LLF) scheduling algorithm assigns the highest priority to a task with the least laxity, and has been proved to be optimal for a uni-processor and sub-optimal for a multi-processor. However, this algorithm Is Impractical to implement because laxity tie results in the frequent context switches among tasks. In this paper, a Modified Least-Laxity First on Multiprocessor(or MLLF/MP) scheduling algorithm is proposed to solve this problem, i.e., laxity tie results in the excessive scheduling overheads. The MLLF/MP is based on the LLF, but allows the laxity inversion. MLLF/MP continues executing the current running task as far as other tasks do not miss their deadlines. Consequently, it avoids the frequent context switches. We prove that the MLLF/MP is also sub-optimal in multiprocessor systems. By simulation results, we show that the MLLF/MP has less scheduling overheads than LLF.
